From the Back Cover:
"These stories are absolutely first-rate. If Guy VanderHaeghe can keep on as he has begun, he has a brilliant future before him." – Robertson Davies
For an unknown writer to win the Governor General's Award with his first book is astounding. Yet that is exactly what Guy Vanderhaeghe did with his 1982 collection of stories that set the Canadian literary world ablaze with excitement. The reaction of writers like Alice Munro, Robertson Davies, Jack Hodgins, Rudy Wiebe – and thousands of readers – marked Guy Vanderhaeghe as the most exciting new Canadian writer of the eighties.
The stories display an astonishing range; thirty-year old Guy Vanderhaeghe shows us the world through the eyes of an eleven-year old boy as convincingly as he reveals it through the eyes of an old man approaching senility. The stories range from the hilarious farce of teen-age romance in "Drummer" all the way to the numbing tragedy of life in a ward for incurables in "A Taste for Perfection". But whether the setting is Bloomsbury or a prairie farm, the reader finds that these twelve superbly crafted stories inspire belief, admiration, and enjoyment. As Books in Canada said, "These are stories to be read and remembered."

Lazy Magnolia is one of my favorite local breweries. Nestled in Kiln, Mississippi, proprietors Mark and Leslie Henderson brewed their first batch in January of 2005 after years spent home brewing beers that friends raved over. They are Mississippi's oldest packaging brewery and the first in the state since Prohibition. If you came to last year's Bayou Beer Festival, you probably had the pleasure of trying some of their brews – and many of you asked "Where can I buy more?" Sadly, at that time, the only brew from Lazy Magnolia that was being distributed locally was their Southern Pecan (a damned fine nut brown ale!)
Now however we can tell you that Lazy Magnolia is officially in our market, with Buquet Distributing bringing a healthy supply of their brews to local retailers, including Cannata's Family Markets. Look for six packs of their Jefferson Stout, Southern Hops'pitality and Timber Beast in your local retailers.
Joy! Rapture!
Timber Beast – Rye Imperial IPA
We'll kick off this gauntlet with Timber Beast, Lazy Magnolia's Rye IPA – actually an Imperial India Pale Ale. It poured a lovely golden amber with a nearly an inch of off white head that left swaths of lovely lacing in the glass. Gotta love that! The nose was sharp, piney hops, resin and some citrus. The flavor followed the nose closely -grapefruit, rye spices, orange/citrus with a slight biscuity, malty backbone. The medium carbonation left a thick-feeling with a dry finish – a little astringent.
If you've never had a brew with rye as a key ingredient, you owe it to yourself to try this one. I really love what the spiciness of the rye does for a beer. Timber Beast features Zythos, Nugget, Cascade, Centennial hops along with Rye, Pale Malt, Carapils, Caramel grains. Sporting an IBU of 80, which is balanced by all those grains, this makes for a smooth, drinkable Imperial IPA. We give it 4.5/5
Jefferson Stout – Sweet Potato Cream Stout
The first time I had Jeff Stout was at the Avenue Pub along with my padnuh the Beer Buddha – and I was instantly impressed. It pours an inky brown, nearly black with ruby highlights and sports a pinky's width of tan foam which receded quickly to a thick ring that left slight lacing in the glass. The nose was chocolate/toffee, toasted malts, bread with some coffee roastiness. Again, the flavor was in sync with the nose – brown sugar, candied sweet potatoes (which maybe is just from me KNOWING that there's sweet potatoes in it,) caramel, chocolate. Smooth and malty but not overtly sweet. The body and carbonation is medium – actually a little more thin than I had remembered.
Sporting an IBU of just 25, and an ABV of 4.65% – it's extremely quaffable. Overall a really great stout. We give this one 4/5
Southern Hops'pitality – India Pale Ale
Our American IPAs are generally more robustly hopped than their European brethren. Southern Hops'pitality however sports an IBU of 60 which isn't off the charts. Lazy Magnolia's website tells us that they use Zythos, Nugget, Cascade, and Centennial hops in this easy drinking IPA. Poured a golden, copper and slightly amber with an inch or so of soapy, white foam that quickly faded but left decent amounts of lacing as I imbibed. The nose presented copious amounts of citrus – Grapefruit, lemon, tangerine – along with the expected piney, grassy resin we all love. The first taste was a mix of citrus and hops – but this beer doesn't clobber your tastebuds with hop domination. It's maltiness – Rye, Pale Malt, Carapils, Caramel – balances the hops' presentation. Yes … there's my Rye again! Mmm!
Crisp and dry, there is a very light carbonation that doesn't overpower the flavors. For those of you who tend to shy away from IPAs, this is a great one to try! This one gets 3.5/5

Start spring with skirts in different shapes and lengths. I love it! This graphic version is one of my favourite buys, affordable and so fresh. This is the first one that stole my heart and fitted my budget. Wearing it with this dark blue crop top, I feel spring proof! Blue is still one of my favourites at this moment. And crop tops are a great item to mix. You think crops are too much skin? Combine it with a high waist skirt, for just a small bare skin zone. What do you think, combine it with heels or sneakers? I think both fit perfect with an outfit like this. Sporty chic with sneakers, feminine power with heels. My opinion is clear. Why not having the best with both? But I like to hear what you think! A touch of orange lipstick and Monki earrings. Rest of the outfit by H&M. Xoxo, Deb.

When conditions dictate along an estuary between May – mid July, you'll stand a good chance of spotting a few bass rooting through bladder wrack, around boulders, etc, in search of shore crab, mostly in the sheltered, quieter regions of the system. You will have to put in the time, without doubt, but with stealth, cunning, & skill, the lure angler can challenge himself to spot, &, catch them, ie, Sight fishing. If you enjoy a solitary quest, experimenting, eye to eye combat with fish, & a insight into a small part of bass behavior, then it could be for you, so don't knock it until you try it.
Bass can enter an estuary at any time on the flood tide, & they can hang around indefinitely falling back to the same pools as mullet at low water within the estuary system, if your already familiar with the estuary your going to try you'll already have some of the pieces of the jigsaw to get started. Most of the activity with crab hunters comes during the second half of the flood, & first half of the ebb, simply because that's when the fish have the best access to the prime "Real estate" of their intended quarry.
Clusters of boulders, old stone masonry, freshwater springs, as well as weed are always worth spending a few minutes watching, & checking out as the tide covers them during the times mentioned. Bass will move in using it's highly tuned sense of smell to detect peelers, but won't pass up the chance of a hard crab of the right size either, often burrowing right into weed when hot on the trail, I've seen it regularly, and it inspired me into searching out a crab lure. Why not give the bass what they are looking for ? A crab lure made perfect sense to me for this close range combat…
These Savage Gear manic crab 2″ fit the bill, but not straight out of the packet, there's some "Prepping" (boil for 4 mins) involved to soften them for more natural crab leg movement, & a better hook up rate when fished weedless "Texan" style. Fishing weedless is a must in estuaries at the time of year mentioned, & weedless should be the starting point to form your lure choice. You will have to contend with rafts of green algae through the water column, another plus with weedless is you'll have the advantage of actually casting on top of weed, & draw the lure across it so it drops into view of your target if/when required. My own lure preference's for "Sight Fishing" are either paddle/pin tail 4″, or the crab, all rigged with a Texan 3/o hook, tied with a rapala knot, leaving a tag 2″ for adding split shot if needed. The Crab needs to be "Balanced" very accurately to make swim with the legs moving naturally, NOT like the set up in the Savage gear manic crab video, which is more like a frog, than a crab….. It's took a while to perfect the crab lure presentation for our Bass for sure, but I'm on the right road with it now.
I'll be bringing my lure with legs to some more locations later this season, to see how they get on there. I've no doubt that it will nail some big, wary bass, but we'll see….

Josef Weinheber
It was my grandmother who first introduced me to the poetry of Josef Weinheber. Then, in my early teens, I found it a bit too provincial and soppy but upon reviewing it recently I came to realize and appreciate its intrinsic quality. It surely sometimes has a pronounced local Viennese note to it, often charmingly so, at other times it is decisively anti-modernistic even classicistic, evoking old eternal truths. Oskar Werner reading a few of Weinheber's poems.
Nomen est omen

- v. Braun. hat gesagt…
Absolutely right! I also heard that Wein-heber had certainly 'lifted' a few glasses of 'wine' in his day...

The dates for autumn 2018 Sheepshare will be:
Deadline for orders: Friday 12th October 2018
Pick-up: Saturday 3rd November 2018
Collection between 10am and 11pm and you lose your lamb if it is not collected. If you place an order, we assume you or a friend can collect it then and there. We cannot store uncollected quarters and they need to be in a freezer within an hour or so of collection. So If it is not collected it will be given away and there will be no refund.
Place: The Brighthelm Community Centre.:
The Brighthelm Centre is at the corner of North Road and Queens Road.
Parking You can drive in for a brief pick up at the East side of the centre off the South side of North road. But the gate to the car park is locked and you have to go to reception to phone a staff member to let in you in and out and you cannot stay for longer than a few minutes. So we do not recommend this. There is a car park building on North road next to the Brighthelm on one side and LA fitness on the other.
Bus routes: Buses to and from the station have a stop on Queens road at North road. Outside the Credit Union or Taylor Barristas café.
Bikes can be temporarily parked at the back of the centre but there is no bike rack there.
Bring a bag: The cuts fit into a plastic carrier which is provided, however we recommend bringing your own plastic bag to wrap it in as the joints can leak, and also a big bag to carry them in. The bag can be heavy so you will probably need to go straight home to put it in your fridge or freezer. We recommend doing any other shopping beforehand so you don't have to carry it around for long.

To build a remarkable sailing yachts, there is to this day a consensus…you need hard work and a lot of carbon fiber:
This film was shot in 2012 in the Aureus Factory, while we were working on an Aureus XV Absolute. The film features images for our leather work studio, our "composite" room, in which we realise vacuum infusions and pre-preg work. Finally you see our CNC room that we use for modelling (creating composite moulds ). It was the first of two teasers we released before revealing the boat.

Toenail Fungus
Toenail fungus is cause by fungal organisms getting into the nail plate. Onychomycosis (the medical name for nail fungus) are most commonly caused by organisms such as Trichophyton rubrum, Candida albicans and moulds such as Scopulariopsis brevicaulis and Fusarium species.
It results in a yellowish discoloration of the nail plate which slowly over time worsens and it will slowly spread from nail to nail over a long period.
Treatments include Oral Lamisil, however this has severe side effects mainly on the liver, topical treatments include Loceryl. We have found Loceryl to be clinically ineffective in treating toenail fungus.
The latest and most promising form of treatment is by using laser to destroy the nail fungus in the nail plate, over time the nail will grow out clear of toenail fungus.
Hampton Podiatry is proud to be the first clinic to offer this treatment in Melbourne, it involves a minimum of 2 treatments to a maximum of 4 treatments, early results out of the United States suggest that this will result in a clearing of the fungal nail infection in 80%-88% of patients.
If you suffer from this condition give us a call and let us assess whether you are a suitable candidate for Laser fungal toenail treatment.

SG presidents discuss historical lack of diversity
The current Student Government president and two former SG presidents have expressed concern that the SG is not doing enough to promote social, racial and economic diversity in its staff.
Student Government President Tim McBride said shortly after being elected in April 2011 that SG needs to work on outreach to people of other races, genders and minorities to create a more diverse pool of presidential candidates.
"It's about getting the best person for the position, but it's also about having the choices and the election that are representative of the student body," McBride said.
All of the last seven Student Government presidents have been white and most were males, with the exception of one female SG president — Ashley Mushnick, during the 2006-2007 school year.
SG President-elect Emily Yu is looking forward to bringing gender and race diversity to the SG.
"But I think for a lot of other people it matters to see someone who looks different from everyone else take on a position like this," Yu said. "So if anything it might just be a symbolic gesture."
Former SG President Andy MacCracken said the amount of unpaid work required of SG presidents might prevent qualified students from running because they can't afford to hold the position without a salary. As a result, only students who are financially well off tend to run for the position.
Candidates can only spend $200 on their campaigns, which is much lower than the campaign budgets at other D.C. schools, MacCracken said.
"If they can't afford the election, they're not going to be elected," he said.
Former SG President Nate Bronstein said he worked 50 to 60 hours a week as president but was only paid for 18 hours.
"If you don't pay the office and treat it like a job, you're going to have students who can't afford to do it, and that's going to severely limit who's able to run," MacCracken said. "And that's going to severely limit the diversity of the candidates."
McBride currently earns $10,000 for the academic year.
Bronstein said AU should focus on increasing the diversity of the student population as a whole, which would lead to a more diverse Student Government.
According to documents from the Office of Institutional Research and Assessment:
•The number of international first-year students has decreased from 5.5 percent in 2009 to 4 percent in 2011.
•The number of degree-seeking "black or African-American" undergraduates has increased from 4.2 percent in 2009 to 5.3 percent 2011.
•The number of degree-seeking Asian undergraduates increased from 5.2 percent 2009 to 5.4 percent to 2011.
•As of October 15, 2011, 56 percent of degree-seeking undergraduates described themselves as "white, non-Hispanic."
MacCracken said there's also a significant geographical diversity among former SG presidents. The past five presidents have come from Delaware, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Kentucky and New York.
"We're from all over the United States, which I think is a unique thing," he said. "I think anyone who comes to AU from outside the Beltway bubble here will recognize that the different backgrounds and cultures you have change your perspective."
Both MacCracken and Bronstein said one of the reasons they decided not to run for reelection was because it is important for every new administration to have diverse ideas and projects.
"In order to maintain continuing perspectives and a flow of ideas," Bronstein said, "you need to allow for that diversity to occur."
Staff writers Heather Mongilio, Zoe Crain and Zach C. Cohen contributed to this report.

The Rinker Companies Foundation, gift-giving arm of the giant West Palm Beach-based Rinker Materials Corp., has donated $2.5 million for construction and $400,000 for operations at Palm Beach Atlantic College.
``It`s a magnificent gift,`` said Palm Beach Atlantic College President Claude H. Rhea. ``It`s the largest single gift in the history of the college.``
The Christian liberal arts college, located on 22 acres in West Palm Beach between Flagler Drive and South Dixie Highway south of Okeechobee Boulevard, is in the second year of a 10-year, $60 million construction program.
The Rinker gift, along with a $250,000 gift from Barnett Bank of Palm Beach County, is part of a campaign to raise $7.5 million from business leaders in the community.
The gift was announced at a luncheon Thursday at the Hyatt Hotel in West Palm Beach, held to kick off the business leaders campaign.
Buildings to be constructed on the campus in the first phase of the plan include a $1.8 million administration/student development center; a $1.8 million science, math and nursing complex; a $729,000 classroom building; and $1.9 million student housing center.
On hand for the gift announcement was 81-year-old Marshall E. ``Doc`` Rinker Sr., chairman of the board and chief executive officer of Rinker Materials Corp.
When asked about the large donation, Rinker cited the college`s ability to meld a religious philosophy and pro- free-enterprise attitude in teaching.

People in Scotland suffer from large and unjust inequalities in health – these are best be explained by considering the stark and growing inequalities in income, wealth and power between groups. Since the late 1970s, a series of neo-liberal economic and social policies have widened inequality in the UK and have, of course, had an impact in Scotland – for example, male life expectancy in certain more disadvantaged areas in Scotland can be as low as 61 years old. Health inequalities arise because of political decisions and processes and because of this it is essential to campaign for a narrowing in the power, income and wealth gaps that cause them. This paper is part of a series of papers which have resulted from the Whose Economy? seminar series, held in Scotland in 2010 – 2011, whose purpose was to provide a space for researchers, representative organisations, policy-makers and people with experience of poverty to come together and explore the causes of poverty and inequality in today's Scotland.

Bullet Journaling Abroad
Traveling abroad can be daunting, especially in the context of studying abroad. When living in a foreign country for months or more, acclimating can be a challenge. One of the best ways to adjust is to fall into a routine. One that is both therapeutic and practical is bullet journaling.
What is Bullet Journaling?
"Journaling" is often associated with something similar to keeping a diary; writing down thoughts and events from the day or week. Keeping a planner on the other hand, is more the scheduling of weekly, monthly, or yearly events, including to dos, important dates, contacts, etc. Using a bullet journal is a sort of happy medium between the two. There is also the benefit of a bullet journal also being a sketchbook and a notebook. However, it is important to keep in mind that a bullet journal can be one or all of the above depending on personal preference. The customizability of such a journal is what makes it so useful. The creator of the bullet journal simply wanted a tool to simultaneously keep track of the past and present, as well as planning for the future.
"Rules" to Bullet Journaling:
There are only a few simple aspects that are at the core of keeping a bullet journal. However, by following only these steps, a user could have a comprehensive and organized journal. Of course, many of those who bullet journal enjoy adding their own twist to these basic steps.
- Keep an Index.
- Number Each Page.
- Keep a Future Log.
- Have a Monthly Calendar and Monthly Log.
- Use a Daily Log.
- Use a Symbol/Bullet Point System to Log.
- Invest in a Sturdy/Portable Journal.
An Index and a Future Log should be within the first few pages of a bullet journal. The Index is similar to a book index and corresponds to the numbered pages. The Future Log is just that: a very basic year-long calendar to track things like birthdays, travel dates, big events, etc. A Monthly Log is simply the tasks the user needs to accomplish during that month. A Daily Log tracks tasks to be done during that day. These are written as reminders and easy notes. What follows these few pages is completely up to the creator.
The beauty of bullet journals is that they follow no strict guidelines. Though there are the "rules," how simple or how much detail the user wants to make a bullet journal is completely open. What is a "rule" is generally considered useful and what is suggested to begin bullet journaling. However, everyone is most productive in their own way, which is why bullet journaling's openness is useful for most.
How I Bullet Journal Abroad:
I originally began bullet journaling in preparation for my year abroad in Japan. My journal was handy for tracking all of the important tasks that were necessary to finish before I left. Important documents, packing, and last-minute scheduling made up most of my pages. During this time, my bullet journal was very basic and simple. While it got the job done, there was little motivation to continue.
Once I began my year abroad, I began to lose interest in my bullet journal because at that time I was not using it to its full potential. I left it in my room and mainly used it as a glorified to-do list.
However, once school began in earnest, I found that the best way to use my bullet journal was to decorate it in a way that was appealing to me. I began using colored pens, markers, stickers, and washi tape. In doing so, I looked forward to organizing my week in my journal. What make it even more valuable was when I began inserting my travel memories in the form of Polaroids, ticket stubs, stamps, etc. By doing so, my bullet journal began to transform from a planner to an invaluable way to track my time abroad. I finally felt like I was using my bullet journal to its full potential. I keep any precious memories in my bullet journal. Nevertheless, it continues to support my studies and travels as being a useful organizational tool.
Things to Remember:
Many people put extra effort into personalizing and making their bullet journal a creative outlet. However, that is not a requirement. Having a bullet journal is not something that needs to take a large amount of time. Keeping a bullet journal should not be the cause of stress but rather its relief. Bullet journaling while abroad is a useful tool to keep your schedule organized, track memories, and well as an artistic outlet. So get Journaling!
Links to Start Bullet Journaling:
To begin bullet journaling, the following links are very useful. They range from the creator's initial idea to more creative and artsy versions. It would also be useful to go on social media like Instagram and Tumblr for ideas. For example, some of above images and featured image are from my own Instagram and bullet journal. I got many of my ideas from the Instagram bullet journal community.

Comodo's free Firewall is your first layer of defense against viruses, worms, Trojans, hackers and all Internet threats.

Whenever an unknown piece of software is introduced to your system, Comodo Firewall cross-references it with a white-list of over 15 million trusted files and applications. If the file asking for access is on the list, Comodo Firewall can be sure it's safe for your computer to allow it to execute. If not, Comodo Firewall will alert you that a possibly malicious file is trying to enter your PC. The latest version sees a major leap forward in security and usability with the addition of cloud based scanning and behavior analysis of unrecognized files - making Comodo Firewall unbeatable at detecting zero-day attacks. Under default settings, unknown and untrusted files are automatically scanned by our cloud-based virus scanners then, while the file undergoes behavior analysis on our cloud server, it is run in a virtual environment (sandbox) on your local machine so that it cannot modify or affect data on your 'real' system. This ground-breaking method of protecting your PC means that only trusted applications are allowed to run. Malware and untrusted files get nowhere near anything important AND you get to use your computer without interruption from nagging alerts. The software also boasts a powerful packet filtering firewall that helps you securely connect to the internet while blocking hackers from making incoming connections.

Being a photographer, I tend to be overly picky when it comes to my own pictures. This is why it is extremely hard for me to hire someone to take pictures of myself or my family – not because I don't trust them or their vision, but because I can think of a million things I would want to do differently or improve on in the way how I/we move/stand/sit/position our body parts, what we wear and so on. I just don't want to come across as a control freak over the creative process… I have an utmost respect for it, I know how sensitive this process can be and how it feels when there is no trust in your vision or abilities. And I would definitely want to avoid projecting that feeling…
A few of the photos that I had taken of my family or myself, were taken by a few of my friends and fellow photographers, people who know me fairly well and don't mind collaborating or sharing ideas and would sometimes even trust me to post-process my own images (yes, I am crazy like that, I love post-processing)!
So, since I didn't have any of those friends around this time and I desperately needed some family/maternity photos taken, I've attempted our family session on the beach, however, my nearly 3 year old was just interested in getting into the water in his light blue linen pants, white shirt and a jacket. You see, we haven't opened a swimming season yet, and he was just too excited about being on the beach… So needless to say, family session was a FAIL
So then I decided to attempt my own maternity shoot. And I am planning to add a few images of the 3 of us hopefully in the next week or two. But the experience on the beach had me rethink my original plans and ideas to accommodate my wiggle worm.
So here is my favourite image from my own maternity session:

On Saturday's "Justice with Judge Jeanine" in her "Opening Statement" segment, host Jeanine Pirro slammed the indictment of Gov. Rick Perry (R-TX) by a grand jury empaneled by Travis County District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg, who Pirro described as a "drunk."
"A famous court of appeals judge once said a grand jury could indict a ham sandwich. Now, I believe in the rule of law, but I'm not going to sugar coat this one. The indictment of Texas Gov. Rick Perry for abuse of his veto power and coercion of a public servant is pure unadulterated hogwash. It makes DAs like me cringe in embarrassment. And it's not just me. Even former Obama White House political adviser David Axelrod calls the indictment, quote, 'pretty sketchy.' Now, I spent my career in the assignment of blame. More than three decades as a prosecutor, prosecutor, and a superior court judge an elected district attorney. I have impanelled grand jury, instructed grand juries and ruled on grand jury actions. Nothing about this indictment makes sense. A sitting governor facing 109 years in prison because he threatened to veto funding to a drunk district attorney's public integrity unit? Really? No one disputes that the law gives the governor the power to veto funding. Period, end of the story. So now every time a governor vetoes funding or legislation, will he or she be subject to an investigation? Or an indictment because people complained it was political?
Pirro went on to point out that this was the norm for this particular's district office, which is one of the few Democratic counties within a very Republican Texas and it has tried this with former Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-TX) and former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-TX).

Waiting for the new museum to open is tough! We feel your pain. We can hardly wait to share it all with you. That's why we came up with #RAMwow. To make the waiting a little easier.
Every week on social media, we'll feature a sneak peek photo of an object or conservation technique you'll see inside the new RAM!
Our aim is to WOW you with bite-sized previews of the stories the museum will tell at the new building. The new museum is set to open in 2018...which means you'll enjoy dozens of "wonders" until then!
Why WOW? It's short for Wonder of the Week. The word "wonder" conveys two things: first, the excitement of discovering Alberta culture and history; second, an element of mystery and curiosity, which ties into part of the guessing aspect of this project! Each week, you can guess the "wonder" with a #whatisit photo before we reveal the answer to you. We don't just want this campaign to be fun and enticing; we want it to be educational and surprising, too.
What kinds of "wonders" will #RAMwow feature? ALL kinds! More than 6,000 objects from our collection will be on display in the new museum. #RAMwow will feature objects from our diverse range of curatorial programs, including archaeology, quaternary palaeontology, botany, invertebrate zoology, ichthyology, ornithology, geology, western Canadian history, ethnology, military & political history, and more!

Delicious Crumbly Pastry Stuffed Full Of Tasty Chilli Con Carne Made With Gran Luchito Smoked Chilli Paste. This Is A Great Way To Take Your Chilli To A Picnic, Perfect For Parties Or Just An Interesting And Original Way To Eat Chilli At Home. Still peckish? Check out some other Gran Luchito Snacks.
Chilli Con Carne Empanadas Recipe
Prep time:
Total time:
For The Chilli Con Carne:
- 9oz Minced beef
- 1 Medium onions
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 1 Small carrot
- ½ Stick celery
- 1 Red pepper
- ½ tsp Cumin powder
- 1 tsp Gran Luchito Smoked Chilli Paste
- ½ tsp Cinnamon powder
- 7oz Kidney beans (tinned)
- 14oz Chopped tomatoes (tinned)
- Olive oil
- Small bunch cilantro
- Salt & pepper
For The Pastry:
- 11lb All purpose flour
- 2 tsp Baking soda
- 1 tsp Salt
- 4oz Butter
- Start with the chilli. Finely chop all the fresh veg (onion, garlic, celery, carrot, pepper) and gently fry in a lug of olive oil for 8-10 mins or until nice and soft in a large casserole dish.
- Throw in the Gran Luchito Smoked Chilli Paste, cumin and cinnamon.
- Add the tomatoes, kidney beans and finely chopped cilantro stalks.
- Fry the minced beef with a lug of olive oil in another frying pan to brown (this will add flavour to the meat) then add to the other ingredients and mix well.
- Add salt & pepper.
- Put a lid on it, leaving a small gap and cook on a low heat for about an hour (longer if you have time).
- Meanwhile, prepare your pastry. Strain the flour into a large mixing bowl and add your salt and baking soda
- Cut the butter into small chunks and add to the flour mixture. Use your fingertips to squeeze the butter into the flour until it forms breadcrumbs.
- Add water a couple of tablespoons at a time mixing with a table knife as you go until it comes together to form a soft dough. This should require about 3-4tbsp. Don't overwork the dough.
- Once combined, form dough into a ball, wrap in clingfilm and place in the fridge for an hour or so.
- Once you're happy with the consistency of the chilli, season, remove lid and take off heat to cool.
- Pre-heat your oven to 350F.
- Take your pastry from the fridge. Either roll out the whole thing and cut 12cm circles out, or pinch off balls the size of golf balls and flatten/roll out to 12 cm.
- Spoon a little of the mixture onto each circle over to on side (see pictures). Don't overpack as they'll be impossible to close.
- Use your finger with a little water to moisten the outside edge of the pastry circles.
- Flip over the side without chilli on and use your fingers to slightly stretch it around the filling so it fits snuggly over and the edges of the circle meet smoothly.
- At this point, you'll want to carefully pick the whole thing up and crimp the edges. Unless you've done this before, it might be worth practising on a piece of scrap pastry as it can be a little tricky. If you've never crimped before, here's a little video to show you how!
- Take your beaten egg and brush each sealed empanada lightly (this will give it a nice shine once it's cooked).
- Sprinkle each with a little salt and bake for about 15-20 mins, or until the pastry is golden.
In the UNITED STATES Gran Luchito Smoked Chilli Paste Is Available online with Amazon

Three of the four San Luis Obispo mayoral candidates discussed their views Wednesday on key topics such as the city's future economic vitality, binding arbitration in salary disputes with city employees and the November ballot measure that seeks to stop the planned extension of Prado Road.
Paul Brown, former City Council member and businessman, Andrew Farrell, Cal Poly student, and Jan Marx, councilmember and attorney, attended the first mayoral candidates' forum, hosted by the San Luis Obispo Chamber of Commerce and the Rotary Club of San Luis Obispo de Tolosa. Donald Hedrick, a welder who is also running, did not attend.
The candidates fielded questions from an audience of more than 60, many of them Rotary Club members, on a range of topics from promoting local business to the city's relationship with Cal Poly.
The candidates agreed that the city's future economic vitality should be a priority of the City Council but differed in their approach.
Marx said she would like to work with Cal Poly to create an "incubator" facility for students interested in launching businesses focused on technology and "green business" to start those companies locally.
Brown said he'd like to see San Luis Obispo recruit businesses fueled by revenue from outside the city limits to act as an economic driver.
When asked if they would help lead the city in undoing the binding arbitration decision that awarded sizeable raises to police in 2008, all three candidates said that it wasn't in their purview on the council to do so.
"That needs to be organically driven by the community," said Farrell, an international management and political science major at Cal Poly. "But I would aide and assist."
All three candidates said they will vote against Measure H — which seeks to halt a planned extension of Prado Road — stating that the northern alignment of Prado is entwined in more than a decade of city planning and to change that would be too costly, impacting traffic and housing plans, for example.
"I see this as an issue that has to do with stopping, chopping, amputating Prado Road rather than allowing it to connect," said Marx, who voted against the northern alignment in 2000. "Ten years have passed since then, and it would be counterproductive now."
The city's relationship with Cal Poly has room for improvement, according to the candidates.
"It is like two twins who don't want to admit they know one another," said Brown, who advocates for the need of better discussion between city and college administrators on citywide issues.

The Patriarchs in the Land of Israel
The history of the Jewish people, like the history of most nations, begins in obscurity. According to the Bible, Abraham, who is considered to be the first of the Patriarchs, originated from the town of Ur, which was in ancient Mesopotamia, a geographical area roughly covered by modern Iraq.
Ancient Mesopotamia was dotted with city states from the fourth millenium bce. The systems of government varied in different periods; elective kingship gave way to hereditary monarchy. Many of the languages as well as the legal systems we know, originated in this area. The states had well developed relations and maintained orderly archives. Archaeology is supplying evidence for all of this, and many of its discoveries are adding to our understanding of the stories in the bible.
Abraham and his family migrated, at Gods command according to the Bible, out of this area in a southwesterly direction into Canaan, which lay between Mesopotamia and Egypt. In the biblical account, Abraham is told that if he goes to Canaan he will be blessed and become a great nation. Later the story relates how God promised that the land would belong to his descendants. The scholarly view that accepts the historicity of the Bible story dates the migration at about 2000 BCE.
The Land of Canaan - or Judea, Palestine and Israel as it has been variously known - was on the great trade route. Abraham was the chief of a nomadic tribe wandering through what is nowadays the Negev of modern Israel, with his base in Beersheva. Although he maintained rather friendly relations with his neighbours, he was set apart from them by his rejection of their pagan religion and his belief in the One, Unseen, All powerful God.
Abraham had two sons, Ishmael and Isaac. Ishmael was the child of Hagar, Abraham's second wife, while Isaac's mother was the first wife Sarah. Sarah and Abraham were both relatively old when Isaac was born and neither had believed that they would bear a child. According to both Jewish and Muslim tradition, Ishmael was the founder of the Arab nations. The high point of Isaac's life - and that of Abraham's - was the Akedah in which Abraham was commanded by God to offer Isaac as a sacrifice. At the last moment God told Abraham to desist and declared 'Now I know that you fear God.'
Isaac had twin sons, Esau and Jacob, whose early life was spent in intense rivalry over the birthright and its accompanying blessing. Jacob, by a trick, prevailed and as a result had to spend many years in exile in fear of his brother's vengeance. Jacob took 4 wives who bore him twelve sons and a daughter. The sons became the Tribes of Israel (an alternative name for Jacob). Ultimately, Esau forgave his brother, who returned to live in the ancestral land.

ELMHURST, ILLINOIS -- I was at the Sports Clips in Elmhurst, IL today, 12/30/09. I had a coupon for a free haircut which was given to me a few months ago by a stylist at this location. Today I went in with my 10-year-old son to get his hair cut and redeem the coupon. When the stylist (a different one than we had before) asked us what we wanted, I said "take off 2 inches", and my 10-year-old son said "take off 1 inch". She said how about I take off "1 1/2 inches" which I said was fine. When she was done, it literally looked like a "bowl cut".
I asked her to "please take a little off the sides and feather it a little more." She immediately became defensive and said "it is feathered. If I take anymore off, it's a whole different cut". I said fine. The next thing she does is proceed to recut his entire head of hair. I NEVER said recut his hair. I said take some off the sides. You could tell she had an attitude as she ripped the comb through his hair and frantically cut away at his hair. Finally when she was through, I told her it looked fine and thank you so much.
Then when she checks us out, I hand her the coupon. She studies it and is looking at the register. She literally could not figure out how to ring it through on the register. She then says to me "I have never seen this coupon before. You can't use it." I explained to her that I used a coupon exactly like it the week before on my other son and there was not a problem. Then she said, "well this coupon is expired so we aren't supposed to accept it." I honestly never saw an expiration date on it and it was NOT expired. At this point I had just about enough of her attitude, so I lost it. I told her that this was not a problem last week when I used the same coupon.
All of a sudden another stylist comes up to the front desk and starts saying something to the effect of "well she just worked on your son for over 30 minutes. She gave him two complete haircuts and we are not supposed to do that." And then she says "Corporate will not allow us to even accept this coupon and they call us all the time to tell us not to take them".
I could not believe what I was hearing. First, when did I ask her to completely recut my son's hair and secondly, why is it my fault that I have a coupon that suddenly they won't accept. They even went so far as to insinuate that the coupon was fraudulent. They asked me where I got it and when I told them who gave it to me, they said "well she does not work here anymore." Then I asked to speak to the manager and she says she IS the manager and she has been there for over a year! I have been going to this place for about a year and I have never seen her before. When I really started to make a scene I was told to leave the store immediately and never come back.
I was contacted by the owner of this location. He apologized for the "miscommunication" between the stylist/manager at this location. The explanation the employee gave him was simply that I was trying to use an expired coupon and when she wouldn't accept it, I became angry. This was not the case. The original reason she gave me for not accepting the coupon was first it was fraudulent, second she said I didn't receive it at that location and then thirdly the employee who issued it to me no longer worked there. On all of these excuses she gave she was incorrect. In fact, the employee who gave it to me still works that and the owner of the store verified that. He also told me that after he examined the coupon, there was an expiration date written on it. I honestly never saw it. Maybe it was written on there after the fact? I don't know. But I was very satisfied that the owner of the store personally called to apologize. We both agreed that I would still never return to his location. I suggested to him that he should post a sign that if a customer plans on using a coupon, they need to present it before services are rendered. This way there is no misunderstanding. I hope he follows up with that suggestion.

What makes home-grown tomatoes taste so much better than those we buy in the store?
The National Gardening Association says supermarket tomatoes usually are refrigerated from field to store and that the cold ruins their flavor. In addition, any tomato picked before a certain stage will never recover from the resulting flavor loss. Vine-ripened tomatoes complete all the ripening stages, which results in the best flavor.

On Wednesday 9 August police officers from Northwich and Chester arrested three people as part of an investigation into modern slavery and human trafficking offences.
Officers, with support from specialist staff, attended a business premises in Northwich and one at an address in Chester.
A 43-year-old woman was arrested at an address in Chesterton Court in Chester on suspicion of modern slavery and a 24-year-old woman and 29-year-old man were arrested on suspicion of modern slavery at an address in High Street in Northwich. Further investigation led to the 24 and 29-year-old also being arrested on suspicion of money laundering. All have been released under investigation pending further enquiries.
DS Clare Ellis, from the Strategic Public Protection Unit, said: "The efforts of all involved today show the continued commitment to tackling the issue of modern slavery. This is a challenging issue to deal with as it is very much a hidden crime – and the true extent of the problem is not known."
Modern slavery takes many forms but the most common include sexual exploitation, forced labour and domestic servitude.
Anyone who has any information about this type of crime or is concerned about someone being a potential victim is urged to call Cheshire Police on 101.
If you do not feel comfortable contacting police directly then information can be passed on anonymously, via Crimestoppers, on 0800 555 111.
Alternatively, you can call the modern slavery helpline on 0800 0121 700 or visit www.modernslavery.co.uk

Project Management  isn't interesting and it almost certainly isn't your core business focus. Very few people wake up with a dream of opening a restaurant so they can spend more time thinking about scheduling plumbers before electricians or ordering materials. Yet these details can break your business before it has even launched.
They put the things in place you need
Did you make a cup of tea or coffee today? It's a quick job and takes just a couple of minutes. Yet try making a brew in a house you've just moved into or out of and you hit snag after snag: is the water turned off? Have the mugs all been packed? Where are the teaspoons? Where's the milk?
Building work and other projects are much like this. Rather than starting in a well-stocked kitchen, you're creating one. Project Managers are responsible for the overarching running of a project, which means they look at every level, from the big picture to small details. They have to be logical, driven and astonishingly well organised. A good Project Manager can save a company millions while a project without a manager can bankrupt it.
They know what needs to happen first
Some tasks need to happen in a very specific order, while others can be done at any time. A Project Manager will schedule tasks with dependencies to ensure that everything can be accomplished efficiently.
Failing to properly account for dependencies results in expensive rework. As an example, if you get a wall plastered and then find out the electrician needs to cut a channel in it for wiring, your plastering cost will double as the work will need to be done again. Project Managers have tools and models to help make sure all dependencies are accounted for in planning.
They talk to everyone
Who passes on the news that the electrician is going to be late finishing the kitchen so the plasterer should start in another room? Project Managers are a central clearing house for information, and communicate with all stakeholders and contractors on a project. When news comes in, perhaps about a delay or a leap forward, they know who to tell to ensure that the project continues as efficiently as possible.
They meet your goals
Every project has a budget and a time frame. Project Managers keep track of both, and are able to help owners make decisions based on their goals. They work over short and long timescales. As an example, the Australian Parliament building uses handwoven fabrics on many furnishings. Project Managers have already commissioned new cloth, the creation of which will take years, in anticipation of the existing fabrics wearing out in a few decades time. Other Project Managers will be looking at minute to minute supply issues for factories and businesses.
They let you concentrate on what's important
A good Project Manager is highly skilled across multiple disciplines, an excellent communicator and calm in a crisis. If working out the details of building schedules, sourcing supplies from cement to door knobs or discussing paint and plaster with trades isn't your core business, a Project Manager can protect your time, giving you as much input as you want without losing focus.

The Gallery 4 is pleased to welcome back Matt Hunter and Gabrielle Fischer. Hunter and Fischer, spouses And Pittsburgh natives, will be returning to The Gallery 4 with their second exhibition of Collaborative works, "Elementals".
Matt Hunter studied fine art and illustration at Pratt Institute and finished his training at Carlow University. Hunter's work has been displayed in a variety of galleries and venues thought Pittsburgh including The Mattress Factory, 3G Gallery, Future Tenant, Zenith Gallery, and recently at RAW Artists Pittsburgh. Matt has also employed his creative talents amongst numerous interdisciplinary events, including live paintings and expositions with events production companies such as BC1, Touch Faster, and GreyArea.
Gabrielle Fischer is an instructor at the Community College of Allegheny County. A natural artist, Gabrielle enjoys exploring and experimenting various techniques of painting. Fischer has worked in open studio group exhibitions in Lawrenceville and the Strip District, as well as having her works displayed at various artisan markets and festivals. Select pieces by Fischer are currently on exhibit at UPMC Hospital in Oakland.
"Elementals", is an exhibition comprised of collaborative and independent works by the husband and wife duo. Elementals, explores the space inside and around us, using a variety of mediums, including faux –encaustic, gauche, and acrylic. The artwork depicts fanciful beings and places that exist beyond our perception. The title of the exhibit, Elementals, derives from the writings of 16th century Renaissance Physician, Paracelsus. In his writings, he depicted the Four Classical Elements (Earth/Air/ Fire/Water) as embodied by four alchemical entities: Gnomes, Sylphs, Salamanders, and Undines, respectively. Hunter and Fischer had an inspired starting point from researching these ideas and creatures and have further advanced with new visual interpretations; often adding technology as the intertwining quintessence.
The Gallery 4 is committed to redefining the nature of a conventional gallery. We feature works from a variety of national artists and local talent. We also carry a variety of limited edition toys and clothing. Fine art should be within the reach of everyone, and at The Gallery 4 we are making this a reality.

Start with an empty barbell and a running clock...
10 minutes to work up to a 1RM
2. Clean and Jerk
10 minutes to work up to a 1RM
3. Front Squat
10 minutes to work up to a 1RM
This is NOT about establishing new 1-Rep Maxes. It is about being able to hit big numbers in the allotted time. You must start with an empty bar and no warm up sets before. If you time out, you must move onto the next movement and you are DONE in 30 minutes. We will hit true PR's soon enough - respect the process - today is not that day.
